Enjoy the peaceful serenity of sipping your coffee as you look out on the gorgeous view of Woods Creek Lake! This peaceful setting is just what you need at the beginning and end of your busy days. Get back to nature with over 90 feet of lake frontage and a side channel that provides extra privacy. This custom built and lovingly cared for home has been enjoyed by the original owners for 55 years, and now it's ready for you to make it your own! A charming brick walkway and boulder-lined driveway welcome you inside to gleaming hardwood floors and wrought iron railings. The expanded and remodeled kitchen features custom maple cabinetry, granite countertops, recessed lighting, a planning desk/credenza with storage, and an oversized island that will naturally become the gathering spot of the home. The space flows beautifully with an open layout connecting the living room, dining area, and kitchen. Enjoy the beautiful lake view as you cook, enjoy meals, or relax after a long day. When you want to connect with nature, step outside through the sliding glass doors to the ample deck overlooking the lake and channel. Enjoying summer cookouts or unwinding while dusk settles over the lake will become favorite pastimes. On the main floor you will find three generously sized bedrooms surrounding the hall bath (one features a hardwood floor). Both bathrooms in the home were remodeled and contain custom cabinetry and tile. The entire furnace was replaced in 2024. The walk-out lower level recreation room with wood-burning fireplace offers the perfect cozy hangout during the chilly fall and winter months. Sliding doors on this level lead to the concrete patio and backyard that showcases beautiful views of the shoreline. A partially finished workshop/storage area with its own patio access is perfect for hobbies, projects, or storing lake toys. The lifestyle here is hard to beat! You'll be a short stroll to Indian Trail Beach and Park, a local favorite for swimming, volleyball, playground fun, and lakeside relaxation. Plus, you're located in the heart of Lake in the Hills, where residents enjoy fantastic parks, miles of trails, community events, and easy access to shopping, dining, and major commuter routes throughout the Fox River Valley. Homes on Woods Creek Lake rarely come on the market, and once you see the view at 128 Hickory Road, you'll want to make this home yours!
